Mock Poem by Thabani Khumalo

Mock



The Devil was locked in a hotel room in heaven,
and he was seen to be longing for hell
through the crystal pane of a golden window frame -
he was seen looking ugly through an open dark curtain.

He was loaded with money and commanded the best treatment,
he was highly prioritized in every credible value,
and the hospitality angels were keen to worship his ego.

All the female angels the bible doesn't mention are his,
which is why he was locked up with one of his suggested preference -
while the heavenly men have agreed to an endless brotherhood.

All the children in heaven are the Devil's
and the other men who service him closely - because he thinks that women in hell are dirty animals.
Each and every visit of his is genuinely celebrated
because he spends only on what is most expensive.

Most of the angels in heaven are soldiers
who only know how to kill and their lives are bound by a loyalty code,
yet the devil goes around grabbing attention in the streets,
and the Devil knows how to play the best music the women love.
